The Fed's stance of holding interest rates higher for longer likely won't be shaken following a fresh reading from the central bank's favored inflation gauge.  ( 71 min )

The report showed the core personal consumption expenditures price index, which the Fed uses to gauge underlying price pressures, rose 0.2% in April from March, following a 0.3% increase the prior month. "The PCE data confirms price increases aren’t as sticky as feared, keeping hopes of at least one rate cut on the table," said David Russell, global head of market strategy at TradeStation. The inflation data still shows price pressures remain above the Fed's 2% target, with the year-over-year rise in the PCE index measuring 2.7% in April, the same rate as in March.  ( 70 min )

A price gauge closely tracked by the Federal Reserve cooled slightly last month, a sign that inflation may be easing after running high in the first three months of this year. Friday’s report from the Commerce Department showed that prices, excluding the volatile food and energy categories, rose 0.2% from March to April, down from 0.3% in the previous month. With polls showing that costlier rents, groceries and gasoline are angering voters as the presidential campaign intensifies, Donald Trump and his Republican allies have sought to heap the blame on President Joe Biden.  ( 70 min )

Gross domestic product - the broadest measure of economic activity - grew at an 1.3% annualized rate from January through March, down from the advance estimate of 1.6% and notably slower than the 3.4% pace in the final three months of 2023. A measure of inflation during the first quarter was revised down to 3.3% from 3.4%, the stiffest quarterly price-pressure growth in a year. The downward revision to GDP brings the first-quarter's growth rate to the lowest since the second quarter of 2022, when the economy contracted, and leaves output below the 1.8% rate that officials at the Fed see as its longer-run, noninflationary potential.  ( 69 min )

Global bond markets face the biggest amount of net sovereign issuance so far this year in June, just as economic data throws rate cuts into doubt, testing investors' so-far strong appetite for the debt. Net government bond supply is likely to rise to $340 billion for the United States, euro zone countries and Britain, according to data from lender BNP Paribas, as redemptions fall and central banks continue to slash their holdings of the paper. Although analysts expect markets to absorb the supply, it has the potential to add to upward pressure on yields - which move inversely to prices - and spook investors who were hoping that rate cuts would spur a bond market rally this year.  ( 71 min )

China's latest steps to revive its struggling property market could pose risks to banks operating in lower-tier cities, S&P Global said on Monday. The measures announced earlier this month such as cutting down payment requirements and removing the floor for mortgage rates are expected to temporarily increase property demand, but the increased leverage could also cause an uptick in mortgage defaults, according to a S&P Global report. "The removal of the floor on mortgage rates will also give lenders less buffer to absorb potential losses when defaults do happen," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Ryan Tsang.  ( 69 min )

France is banking on a new push to integrate the European Union's fragmented capital markets to give them the scale needed to wean its flourishing startup sector off of dominant U.S. venture capital, ministers, CEOs and investors said. A hodgepodge of local regulations and oversight has kept Europe's financial markets largely shaped by national borders, preventing the emergence of deep capital markets to rival the United States. For startups in France and elsewhere in European Union that means they almost inevitably turn to U.S. venture capital - private equity funding of early stage promising companies - to fund growth as there simply is not enough big investors at home.  ( 34 min )

SINGAPORE/LONDON (Reuters) -The dollar held steady on Monday, but was set for its first monthly loss this year, as investors were focused on U.S., European and Japanese inflation data to guide the global interest rate outlook.
